[Verse 1]
The hurt across your face
Your word against mine
The rhythm you repeat
The beat, a hair behind
Were you on my side?
You gave your all, but you gave it once
A lesson that you thought
You could teach it when you want
Subtract me from your heart
Little take away girl

[Pre-Chorus]
(One step at a time)
You made us angry
(All your love could hide)
But we knew you were-ah, afraid

[Verse 2]
We accept, we unaccept
We made up, we're breaking up
You thought you had enough
But maybe you didn't know
That this stage holds a show

[Pre-Chorus]
(One step at a time)
You showed us angry
(All your love could hide)
But we knew you were-ah, afraid
[Chorus]
Misery, I digress
No recourse, no remorse
Let it be, I confess
To every song that brought you back
Misery, I digress
No recourse, no remorse
Let it be, I confess
To every song that brought you back
